would have been good here, don't matter Oilers won't get past the Canucks over the next 2 yrs 

Why do you say that?   
We are currently a good amount worse than we were last season.  
We lost a solid beastly Dman and a top 6 centre and didn’t replace them.

Edmonton has still chosen not to bring in an NHL quality blueliner other than an aging Ekholm.

Take off your homer glasses Heff. 
Bouchard was 5 in Norris voting and lit us up big time.  
They made it to game 7 of the cup finals.  
Be realistic homie

FA and the off season just started, I'm not worried, the Canucks will get some good players. There is still Hakanpaa who is big and tough

Bouchard is absolute trash in his own zone.  He really belongs in the ECHL to learn how to stop being a complete liability defensively.  He's worse than useless.

This is why is stay clear from conversing with you most times.  
It’s like talking to Alf when he is shitfaced. 
I’m not interested in talking to a fake internet persona

Early in the offseason, yeah 

But now they cost assets. 
Id like to keep a 1st round pick from time to time.  
Also not a fan of trading home developed players right before they boom.

I don't think next year's 1st will be moved, so far I like the Forward signings. One more D and I think this team will be tops again.

Then don't.  I simply don't think there's any spot on a legit NHL roster for a defenceman who refuses to learn how to play defence. Personally, I don't think the way Bouchard plays in his own zone is acceptable regardless of offensive output.  He's the kind of guy you love to play against but hate to have on your team.

On man, this hurta. Debrusk better not be another Louie. This is exactly the type of deal I would have liked...short term for a high energy player like Arvidsson. Hope mgmt is right.

 

Z $5

Arvidsson $4

Sherwood $1.5

Heinen $2.25

Small non playoff guy 

easy to play against 

yay 

Arvidsson actually plays like a buzz saw, the risk is that he’s had I think two back surgeries lately. At 31 and a smaller frame he could simply be falling apart.

I don’t like his style, but again being the #1-2 dman on a cup finals team, as well as finishing 5th in Norris voting……

You are riding your shtick hard, as usual

He was easily their worst player.  Sadly, the Norris voters don't seem to care whether or not a guy can play defence at all anymore.
